Watch as the Kentucky Wildcats host the LIU Blackbirds at 7 p.m. ET Friday night for the Barclays Center Classic.You might here some scattered "Brooklyn" cheers, but it won't be for the Nets.

Sit around with your leftovers from Thanksgiving day and enjoy this matchup as the defending National Champs take on a weaker opponent. 

Kentucky is 3-1 so far in this young college basketball season. Their lone loss came against No. 9 Duke last week as they dropped that matchup 75-68. 

Without a doubt it is taking Coach John Calipari some time to adjust to the new players he has this season. Six of his championship winning members departed for the NBA and now Calipari is working with what he has left. 

So far, they are not doing horrible. They come into this matchup ranked 41st in the nation in scoring averaging just about 80 points per game while shooting a whopping 52 percent from the floor. 

They are on a mini winning streak have bounced back with a huge 101-49 win over the Lafayette Leopards and then defeating the Morehead State Eagles just two days ago 81-70. 

The weakest part of the Wildcats' game is their rebounding as they come into the matchup ranked 223rd in the nation with 34 boards per game. 

LIU should not be a match for Kentucky as they are still searching for their first victory of the year. They lost to the same Eagles in a close 77-74 game and the Leopards 98-94 in overtime. Recently they dropped their game to the Maryland Terrapins 91-74 for their hugest defeat of the season.
